The sixty or seventy members of the Great Sejm sitting on the east side stood up one after another, excitedly supporting Jan Kiliński,
"Placating the Russians is a betrayal of the brave warriors who died in the War of National Defense!"
"The Russians have deceived us with lies for decades, and we must never trust them again!"
"Count Blanicki, you can crawl before your Tsar and beg, but we will never do so!"
"Damn it, we drove the Russians away with blood and will never let them return..."
Although Count Blanicki's side had only a dozen people, they still stubbornly and loudly refuted,
"We cannot keep wasting like this forever."
"Why don't you go to Bobruisk or Turów and see where people have to flee east of the Dnieper River because they can't pay taxes."
"We can hate the Russians, but we also need to trade with them."
"If this continues, there will be unrest in the eastern provinces!"
The people on Kiliński's side immediately drowned them out with louder voices.
